*There is some debate as to the actual origins of these delicious pastries…some say they were created by a Danish Pastry Chef and was first served on the occasion of a state visit by the French emperor Napoleon. Others claim the pastry was first created by an Italian chef in Naples who named it "napoletano" after his city, and the name was later corrupted to "napoleon" in English. Did you know the first written record of Napoleon Pastries is in an English Cookbook written by a French Chef in 1733, but the first mention in a French Cookbook wasn’t until 1749…hmmmm!?!
